The 5/6 team has been doing an interesting unit on the ancient Maya.
We have been learning about everything, from the rainforest, to Mayan math, to the ancient Mayan ball game. It has been an exciting and fun-filled unit.
On Thursday, October 27, the 5/6 team is taking a field trip to Harvard University, which is in Cambridge, Massachusetts. We will be visiting the Peabody Museum of Archeology and Ethnology. We will also be visiting the Museum of Natural History. We are going to study their extensive collections of Mayan artifacts.
Around October 30th, the team will be creating our own museum on the Maya. Everybody will choose a topic, and we will research that topic. Then, when everyone is finished studying, we will make an exhibit for everyone to see.
